Eora/Sydney heavy alt-rock powerhouses RedHook today flip the switch on their volatile new cut, ‘Bomb.com‘ – produced by Stevie Knight (Stand Atlantic) and mixed by James Paul Wisner (Underoath, Paramore). It is the latest single off their forthcoming sophomore record ‘Mutation‘ – out Friday, November 22. Pre-order / Pre-Save HERE.
Dripping with maniacal sass and purpose-built for the pit, ‘Bomb.com’ is a snarling nu metal-meets-hardcore rager with electro-hop undertones that sees frontwoman Emmy Mack spit fiery Nicki Minaj-esque rap bars aimed at an unnamed misogynist.
Emmy explains: “‘Bomb.com’ is basically just a big fun diss track about an egomaniacal dude in the music industry who likes to talk a lot of shit, particularly about female-fronted bands. Lame AF behaviour that we felt compelled to take the living piss out of. Craig also added these really sick synths for extra hype that were inspired by that song ‘Like A G6’. This one’s gonna be so much fun to play live!”
To coincide with the release, RedHook have announced a trio of East Coast album launch parties in Naarm/Melbourne, Meanjin/Brisbane and Eora/Sydney, taking place during album release week. The mutant party will kick off at Stay Gold on Wednesday, November 20, before heading to the newly revived The Zoo on Thursday, November 21, and wrapping up at Crowbar on Friday, November 22. Each party will be themed based on a different song off the ‘Mutation’ LP, with RedHook treating their fans to free entry, a live acoustic performance, Q&A session, exclusive merch, photos & signings, themed beverages, and a prize for “best dressed”. Emmy adds, “We can’t wait to celebrate this album with the people we made it for! Join us for a mutant party for the history books!”
RedHook recently made their long-awaited debut on triple j‘s Like A Version with a punk-goes-pop twist on Tate McCrae‘s ‘Greedy‘. ‘Mutation’ will be stacked with previous singles’ Pyromaniac‘, ‘Cannibal‘ feat. Alpha Wolf, ‘Breaking Up With‘, ‘Scream 2‘ and ‘Tourist‘ and see RedHook double down on everything that makes them one of the most exciting and paradigm-shifting bands in the modern heavy space.
The band just finished their biggest Australian headline tour ever, which saw them sell out Naarm/Melbourne’s 170 Russell. The band will embark on their latest foray to the UK and EU in support of Dream State (UK) in October and November. To celebrate the album’s release, the band have announced three ‘Mutation‘ Album Launch Parties for release week across Naarm/Melbourne, Meanjin/Brisbane and Eora/Sydney.
Their debut album’ Postcard From A Living Hell‘ peaked at #10 on the ARIA Album Charts and was triple j’s Feature Album of the Week. Previous singles off ‘Mutation’ have been added to full rotation on triple j, and playlist support has been seen from Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, and Deezer. The band has also been featured on the cover of Spotify’s ‘All New Rock‘, ‘Rock Out.‘, ‘Homegrown + Heavy‘, and Amazon Music’s ‘Breakthrough Rock‘.
